- Adrianna M. Rosales, The University of Texas at Austin
- Matt Tirrell, University of Chicago, “New Biomaterials and Bio-inspired Materials from Polyelectrolyte Complexation”
NANOSCALE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY DIVISION PLENARY SESSION (NP)
The Nanoscale Science and Technology Division starts the week with a plenary session featuring a talk from the Nanotechnology Recognition Award winner. Following this talk, we will have our Early Career and Graduate Student competitions. Please join us for these engaging talks on nanoscale science and technology and for lively discussion during a reception, immediately after the competitions.
NSP1: Nanoscale Science the Technology Plenary Session (ALL-INVITED SESSION)

EXHIBITOR TECHNOLOGY SPOTLIGHT (EW)
The Exhibitor Technology Spotlight Sessions will take place in the stage area of the exhibit hall during the technical session breaks on Tuesday and Wednesday. These sessions are free and open to all registered AVS 68 attendees. This is your opportunity to learn about new products, research techniques, and services offered by AVS exhibitors. Each session is followed by a brief Q&A session making it a truly interactive learning experience. After the sessions, you may visit the presenting exhibitors at their booths to further discuss any points that you would like to receive more details on. Come learn how new technology can benefit your research efforts!

The exhibits will be open from Tuesday morning until Thursday afternoon (November 8-10, 2022). Please contact exhibits@avs.org for additional information.
AVS LATE-BREAKING SESSION
There will be opportunities for the presentation of post-deadline discoveries in all fields relevant to the AVS membership. Submissions that address topics in surfaces, interfaces, films, nanometer-scale phenomena, emerging technologies, or new innovations. Abstracts will be solicited starting in mid-July for either (1) an individual 20-minute oral presentation, or (2) a poster presentation. Late-Breaking Abstracts will be used to fill holes in the program and they must be submitted via the AVS website by Wednesday, August 24, 2022. Notification of acceptance/rejection will be made soon thereafter. Please review the AVS 68 website for details and submission guidelines in mid-July.
AVS SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
AVS is a not-for-profit Society that offers a myriad of services, programs and events related to science and technology in the fields of vacuum, materials, interfaces and processing to scientists and engineers from around the world. An extensive recognition and exposure program, which is active before and during the Symposium, is available to our Symposium Sponsors. As a Symposium Sponsor, your logo will appear on the AVS website, in the Technical/Exhibitor Program, on signage and slide shows at the Symposium. The earlier you commit to AVS Symposium Sponsorship, the greater exposure you will receive.
